Characterization of a Dye-Decolorizing Peroxidase from <i>Irpex lacteus</i> Expressed in <i>Escherichia coli</i>: An Enzyme with Wide Substrate Specificity Able to Transform Lignosulfonates

A dye-decolorizing peroxidase (DyP) from <i>Irpex lacteus</i> was cloned and heterologously expressed as inclusion bodies in <i>Escherichia coli</i>. The protein was purified in one chromatographic step after its in vitro activation. It was active on ABTS, 2,6-dimethoxyphenol...

description A dye-decolorizing peroxidase (DyP) from <i>Irpex lacteus</i> was cloned and heterologously expressed as inclusion bodies in <i>Escherichia coli</i>. The protein was purified in one chromatographic step after its in vitro activation. It was active on ABTS, 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (DMP), and anthraquinoid and azo dyes as reported for other fungal DyPs, but it was also able to oxidize Mn<sup>2+</sup> (as manganese peroxidases and versatile peroxidases) and veratryl alcohol (VA) (as lignin peroxidases and versatile peroxidases). This corroborated that <i>I. lacteus</i> DyPs are the only enzymes able to oxidize high redox potential dyes, VA and Mn<sup>+2</sup>. Phylogenetic analysis grouped this enzyme with other type D-DyPs from basidiomycetes. In addition to its interest for dye decolorization, the results of the transformation of softwood and hardwood lignosulfonates suggest a putative biological role of this enzyme in the degradation of phenolic lignin.
